From what I have read the film maker is actually a Muslim, not an Israeli Jew, as he told AP on September 12th, 2012, or an Egyptian Coptic Christian, as was also reported, as well as an FBI informant. I have save the links. Obama jumped on that video as if it was manna from heaven.
I read a lot of information, and I watch a lot of news shows, sometimes in the background. One news report yesterday supplied a bit of information in a report, that talked about rebels getting literally thousands of shoulder fired weapons. I believe they were talking about munitions to take down aircraft. I may be wrong about that.
It came out in Issa's hearing that 10-20 thousand, IIRC surface to air missiles than can take down airliners are missing somewhere in Libya. One of the witnesses testified to that in Issa's hearing, and I think that hearing can still be viewed from C-SPAN.
What these rebels are getting, is going to be causing havoc for the next half century.
This is the ugliest and heart of what Obama's administration does not want the light of truth to get fixated upon. WE the US have armed AlQaeda to the teeth with the apparent expectation they will take down Assad in Syria. But Obama's drones keep taking out AlQaeda leadership in other Muslim nations. Obama cannot serve two masters and we are going to continue to pay a price.
Yes, I do remember that. It was what Stevens was working on I believe. Thanks for the reminder. I thought the guy had mentioned 20,000 units, but that sounded so high I backed off a little. 20,000! Imagine that. Just how many aircraft did Khaddafy have in his air force anyway? Doesn’t this sound truly screwed up.
The “missing” weapons are Russian-made MANPADS that were obtained when the insurgency broke into Qadaffi’s arsenals.
Why would we, US, have supplied surface-to-air missiles to anyone? To oust Quaddafi (sic?) or any despot, why would surface-to-air missiles, much less 10-20 thousand be needed?
Wouldn't auto and semi-automatic weapons and the like be all that was necessary? Why surface-to-air missiles - isn't that supplying overkill? Massive overkill...
